Stop Bleeding In Mouth

San Glisente Now energy



















Segnalo the release of two excellent CD, "San Glisente " by Carlo Giordani and "energy Now" by WK569 ( Federico Troncatti - Piero Villa - Ezio Martinazzi ).
These two works different from each other, both with not very comfortable but valuable packages are the result of the passion of some friends in the first case of Field Recording, in seconds instead of Electronic Music.

As the report notes inside the case, "Sanglisente sound could be described as a photograph, or rather, a documentary without images: it is of field recordings [...] performed with the specific intent to capture sounds and soundscapes ". These recordings were made by his friend Carlo Giordani (in collaboration with Ezio Martinazzi) on "Mount San Glisente, an ancient place of worship, located at 1956 meters [...] over the area of \u200b\u200bBerzo Inferiore (BS). [...] Place of unusual simplicity and beauty [...]".
For those who keep their assets in the memories of the sounds of the mountains, the pastures, shepherds, cows, flies, grass, dogs, clouds ... so all those noises typical of alpine sound experiences, this album will certainly be of great interest; even moving. For those who lack this "music", will be a new territory to explore (it's not too late to do it physically) that will bring many surprises even the most discerning listeners, thanks to the great sound quality of the recording and reproducing amazingly realistic details . to this address: http://alink2thepast.blogspot.com/2010/03/una-lunga-gestazione.html found any useful information.

As for "Energy Now" technical explanations remain dormant as it is, in my opinion, a kind of CD / reconnaissance plane launched a space-sound composition unexplored, and this explains the absence of explanatory notes to 'inside the box.
If that penalizes lack full understanding of the work, does not limit the appeal. Listening to this "e-generation real-time editing with subtractive in deferred time," evokes the music of another, as if originating just a mo (n) do "other", different, design, mix and maybe even hear sounds, get lost in it gives the sensation of a journey through the cosmos. Pending further developments I think are looking for something new in music, not predictable or obvious, for those who love getting lost in strange worlds of sound, listening to "Power Now" will give a lot of satisfaction. Here is the email address to ask for myspace to listen to a snippet: posta@wk569.eu - http://www.myspace.com/wk569

Enjoy it.

Fountains



Restarts the project "Fountains" began in 2009 with friends Carlo Giordani and Ezio Martinazzi , this is an audio recording work (primarily), videos and photographs, the most interesting fountains Camonica Valley.

Each fountain "sings" in fact so different from the others, each has its own unique voice that somehow we would like to document and preserve it from oblivion.

We invite all friends of the "Valley" fountains interesting to report, excluding those that are architectural or too recent, as they also invite you to tell stories, anecdotes or anything that affects them.

This is a job for which it is difficult to set a time but once achieved, we would like that result in the publication of the material more interesting.

report some notes of the project.

------------------------------------- ------------------------------

A fountain is a device from which you can draw water, where it is not located at a source the water reaches the fountain by a water system. Were very important and widely used in residential areas before running water was available in individual homes, but now gradually vanished, like public washrooms, seats equipped with tanks where you could bear to do laundry. addition to using as a point of access to water, the fountains are used as an architectural element and urban ornamental and artistic, too type of monumental examples are decorated with fountains statues or illegiadrite and made the most spectacular and scenic with imaginative water features.

from Wikipedia - the free encyclopedia


Fountains us interest are those civilians, those who, like the headlights, for example, are endangered; obsolete for the purpose that generated them. Is no longer being built almost fountains of use, many are suppressed, other and let go to ruin in the future if it is true that we will even water wars, probably fountains will be closed or demolished, some are no longer with the free-running water and constant access. The public fountain in the name already contains the nature of sharing, common good, which is the opposite of privatization, ownership, possession and profit, selfishness. Life itself, survival strategies and requirements in common practices, compel us to unite as humanity, to share, as if that were the natural flow of things and all forms of exclusivity and closure go against the grain.

This work is dedicated to my father, who gave me the love for singing in birds, the hunter only regret I have known.

Notes
Every sound, with the help of a software audio editing can be changed to the point of becoming virtually any another sound object.
In this case, the recording of the song of a nightingale was modified by simply adding a few effects to the whole track: the result, therefore, was even more surprising.
The title is a joking reference to the surface similarity between this work and that of the group Starfuckers, imagining the sound of the nightingale DNA from the beginning there were, what they have achieved only Starfuckers recently with a much longer route.
Going further, you can imagine that there is the beginning of time, a sort of mother of all the noise, which, unlike white noise, can be shaped, from elect, until it takes on forms graceful, without giving up any of his children el'usignolo sound ... is elected.



Nightingale (Luscinia megarhynchos ) sings with lightness and strong and his warbling, consisting of single tones and two stanzas, densely aligned to each other, is considered among the most beautiful and complex.
In early spring the nightingales sing mostly at night and stop in the morning, with the rest of the season however, can be heard clearly during the day.
The song is used especially for the demarcation of their territory and attract female partners.
The male songbirds learn to sing in early youth birds and neighbors know fluently between 120 and 260 different kinds of verses, which last for more than two to four seconds.
All the verses have the precise characteristics that give rise to the differentiation of regional dialects .
The nightingale is the subject of research by ethology especially for its complexity and the memory feature.
In the past it was regarded as a pain reliever and could lead to a mercy killing and the dying patient a speedy recovery.

hundred percent American

The average American wakes up in a bed built to a design which originated in the Near East. He pulled back the sheets and blankets that can be cotton, plant native to India, or flax, a plant native to the Near East, or sheep's wool, animal originally domesticated in the Near East, or silk, whose use was discovered in China. All these materials have been invented yarns and fabrics according to procedures in the Near East. He puts on his moccasins invented by Indians in the wooded lands of the East, and goes to the bathroom, whose accessories are a mix of European and American inventions, both of recent date. Takes off his pajamas, a garment invented in India, and washes with soap invented by the ancient Gauls. Then he shaves, a masochistic rite which seems to be derived from the ancient Sumerians and Egyptians.
Back in the bedroom, took his clothes from a chair to the model was developed in southern and dresses.

Ralph Linton, The study of man - Il Mulino 1973

Notes

This song American anthropologist Ralph Linton, who could be called "One hundred per cent Italian," shows us that our traditions are the sum of customs and traditions of different mischiatesi populations or been in contact in the past. It 'important to be aware of this because the lack Information is a great tool for those forces who lives on fear.
who often speaks for the defense of their traditions, they do not know anything, that defense is generally reduces the translation of road signs in local dialects.
During the period of my approach to ethnomusicology I met several people and a serious commitment for years, ethnological and historical research in Italy and abroad, and it is significant to note that none of them ever speaks of "preserving the traditions" , if anything, study and understanding, which requires enormous energy and expertise.
Linton makes us reflect with humor and simplicity, quality that we so badly need in a country where they often shout "racist" with the same hatred and intolerance of the same racist themselves.
